VNC connection lost when initiating telnet session quits- solution!

[Dr Robert Young]

Launching the vncserver from the csh seems to work, and the apps appear 
to remain alive after the telnet session is exited.

# csh
ultra10# /usr/local/bin/vncserver

New 'ultra10:1 (root)' desktop is ultra10:1

Starting applications specified in //.vnc/xstartup
Log file is //.vnc/ultra10:1.log

ultra10#

When the telnet connection is now broken, the vncserver and its apps 
continue to operate normally.  Apparently the 'C' shell is insulating 
the programs, while the /sbin/sh does not.

We live...we learn....
